Morphological Evidence of Phenotypic Plasticity in Shells of Oyster (Crassostrea tulipa) From Sub‐Habitats in the Densu Estuary, Ghana

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The West African mangrove oyster, Crassostrea tulipa, exhibits high variability in shell morphology, which is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. The current study investigated the plasticity of C. tulipa sub‐populations within the Densu Estuary, Ghana, from May 2017 to October 2018 with respect to shell morphology, as ...

Beyond bacterial defences: the role of lysozyme in cancer

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Lysozyme (LYZ) is a multi‐functional secreted factor that encompasses both antibacterial and immunomodulatory functions. Emerging evidence highlights its complex role in tumour progression by directly influencing tumour cells and modulating the immune microenvironment.

The Genetic and Morphological Basis of Local Adaptation to Elevational Extremes in an Alpine Finch

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated morphological and genetic variation in the Sierra Nevada Gray‐crowned Rosy Finch to identify traits important for local adaptation in alpine environments. By combining trait measurements with genome‐wide analyses, we uncovered loci linked to thermoregulation, altitude adaptation, and cold tolerance.

Association of Anti‐Inflammatory Dietary Adherence With Biomarkers and Gut Microbiota Related to Colorectal Cancer Risk: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
This retrospective study evaluates whether greater adherence to an anti‐inflammatory diet is associated with biomarkers and gut microbiota profiles linked to reduced colorectal cancer risk. The study seeks to clarify how dietary patterns influence inflammation and gut microbiota, providing insights to guide effective prevention strategies for ...
